Live Questions:
35:37 Your last show on religion made me think of We the Living where one of the quasi-heroes was Andrei, a Communist. Kira was drawn to Andrei because he was an atheist. What are your thoughts on Andrei, and what were Rand's?
39:00 Just finished the Romantic Manifesto. I am having trouble understanding Rand's concept of "Sense of Life" as a "pre-conceptual equivalent of metaphysics." Would you mind fleshing this out?
43:10 Sense of Life=Implicit.Philosophy=Explicit.I like the formulation”philosophy is the science of turning implicit feelings into explicit convictions”.Forgot where I heard this, but it was likely Peikoff
43:22 If Trump is anti-ideology, what is the cause of the fervor of his supporters?
44:55 You notice a few GOP candidates are unabashedly using the word "capitalism" Instead of free enterprise? They seem like they're more ready to defend it.
45:46 Why did Ayn Rand appear on Phil Donahue twice given how corrupt and dishonest he was? He only had her on in an attempt to discredit her and her ideas.
46:40 Do you think one of the reasons it's harder to regulate tech because much of it falls under 1st amendment protected activity?
47:46 Is the concept of "being the bigger man" legitimate? Like if someone's a jerk or obnoxious, not to stoop to their level? Or is that an altruistic injustice to yourself?
48:22 Please make a short video with picture of this guy, and everyone SHARE
48:38 Evasion of reality seems to dominate the culture now. Thanks again for all you do!
50:21 What Gayle said....😉
50:35 I'm so glad you covered this song. It's terrible. I haven't liked new country music Sense I realized how hedonistic It's become, however, that music is still much better than whatever this was
51:24 Money q. - Why are there no more $1,000 bills?
52:24 You should really go on more online shows, if you get the option. Like Sitch and Adama. It's always a good fun

53:14 Outro
